Mr. Ortiz can finally prove to the world he’s a star without the UFC. In due time, the PPV numbers will determine whether he’s right or not.

They might do Shamrock/Ortiz 4.

I’m just wondering where they’re going to find a paraplegic who fights at 170 willing to fight up two weight classes.

Ok, that was kind of mean.

I’m sure Affliction will set him up with a suitable can to get him back on the right track.

De La Hoya can afford to promote himself because he made 9 figures before leaving Arum. Tito Ortiz has probably not made 8 figures.

My main hang up with Ortiz is this.

I can’t think of a big money match-up that he has a chance of winning.

Really?

IF Tito is so sure that he will draw 500k ppv why not just promote himself ala De La Hoya.

I wish Affliction would be smarter in who they spent money on. I’m Sorry But hyping Matt Lindland after his lackluster preformence aganist A fighter he should have Ko’d or Submitted is just plain wrong. Edwin Dewees is not worth 15,000, and Paul Buentello Albatross Contract is funny as hell.

lol

u guys are kinda retarded

You guys forget that Tito vs Ken 3 was the highest rated MMA show ever on spike to this date?

You guys forget that Tito vs Chuck 2 is the highest selling non boxing PPV of All Times?

Get real, 500k buys is nothing for Tito
